About Ticals
A tical (also baht or kyat in historical usage) is a traditional Southeast Asian unit of mass, equal to approximately 16.329 grams. It was historically the standard weight for gold and silver trade throughout Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, and Laos. In Thailand, the tical is the root of the currency 'baht' - the baht coin was originally defined as the weight of one tical of silver. In Myanmar, the traditional kyat weight system used ticals as a primary unit.
About Carats
A metric carat (ct or CD) is exactly 200 milligrams (0.2 g), the universal standard for weighing gemstones. Established internationally in 1907, it replaced fractionally different regional carat weights previously used in different countries. The total weight of a diamond or colored gemstone is always expressed in carats: a 1.00 ct diamond of excellent cut and color can command over $5,000. The Cullinan diamond, the largest gem-quality rough diamond ever found, weighed 3,106.75 carats.
